I'm about to turn 50. The skin on my face is relatively firm and in great condition for my age so I don't need a Facelift.However, my neck and chin area doesn't look nearly as good as my face. What are my options for firming up the neck and chin area?

Answer: Facelift Great question. It's difficult to tell without pictures, but a facelift and/or necklift is a great way to tighten the neck and chin. There are non-surgical options (threading, Ultherapy) but surgery is usually the most powerful way to address those area and have lasting results. Consult with a plastic surgeon for more options tailored to you.

Answer: Options for firming Neck & Chin In some, the neck can be contoured using liposculpture alone. However, when there is excess skin and neck muscle laxity a neck lift is needed for optimal results. When ageing is more advanced, to achieve a harmonious facial rejuvenation, the neck, brow or eyes may need to be treated at the same time as a facelift. One of the disadvantages of the so-called "mini-facelift" technique is that they are usually of minimal and short lasting benefit to the neck. If neck improvement is a priority, then the facelift incision will need to be continued behind the ear to allow removal of lax neck skin and tighten the neck muscles. These incisions are carefully hidden within the hair allowing women to wear their hair up. For those with more advanced ageing of the neck, and with those wanting recontouring of the neckline, a submental (front of) neck lift will usually deliver optimal results

Answer: Upload photos Thank you for your question. Without photos provided, it is rather difficult to tell. I would advise you to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon for a detailed examination to discuss all possible treatment options and what your expectations are.
